An Lingrong after rebirth

An Lingrong turned her gaze and stared at the other person, "It is a special favor that I didn't punish you for doing such a thing. If you say a few more words, what will happen when you leave Yonghe Palace depends on my mood.

Although An Lingrong had only been in the palace for a short time, she did not meet anyone most of the time when she was pregnant. Ping'er could never have imagined that.

The kind-looking Concubine Shu in front of me actually looked like this? The words of begging for mercy were stuck in my throat, and I couldn't make a sound.

Xiao Ah then stepped forward and dragged the stunned Ping'er away. An Lingrong then picked up the teacup, took a sip, and asked again:

Hongling, you said you served in the imperial concubine's palace before, I wonder which imperial concubine it was? This Hongling looks quite old, at least twenty-three years old.

Logically speaking, she would be able to leave the palace in two years, and she should be trying to find an easy job at this time, but now she was sent to Yonghe Palace? She should be questioned.

After what happened with Ping'er, they knew that An Lingrong had a kind face but a cruel heart, so they naturally did not dare to neglect her.

Hongling was much calmer and knelt straight. "I used to be a tea waiter in the palace of Imperial Noble Concubine Que Hui. She pointed me out because she didn't like the large number of people in the palace."

The palace of Concubine Xian happened to be short of people, so she was sent to Yonghe Palace by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to serve. This "tea maid" thing...

An Lingrong thought in her head: Of course, she must be someone that the Imperial Concubine trusts, how could she be pointed out? Since she is the tea maid serving the Imperial Concubine, her tea-making skills must be extraordinary.

Go and make a pot of tea for me and Concubine Xian. Yes, please wait a moment, Your Majesty. Hongling followed Caiyue down, and An Lingrong called Qinglian again, saying that she would be responsible for the work of the winemaker after the evening embroidery.

Sister Mei, the emperor has not arranged a chief eunuch, but you want me to decide for myself. Do you want someone? Shen Meizhuang nodded. Xiao Shi has been with me for a year.

He is a useful person. Let him be the chief eunuch in the future! Okay, sister, just make the decision. An Lingrong glanced at Shen Meizhuang, and the other party immediately understood.

When you serve in Yonghe Palace in the future, you must be cautious and prudent. I cannot bear to see a slave serving two masters. If there is any private message from you, please speak up as soon as possible.

If you are discovered by me or Concubine Shu, you will not be a perfect person when you leave Yonghe Palace. Do you understand? I will obey the order of Concubine Xian!

"Okay, everyone, go down!" Shen Meizhuang said, and in a blink of an eye, only a few people were left in the hall.

Sister, Hong Ling comes from the palace of Concubine Hui after all. You can't offend her easily without checking clearly. But since she is new to us, you can't do the tea-serving job if you don't know everything.

Sister, do you have any ideas? What should I ask her to do? Shen Meizhuang shook her head. Caixing and Caiyue have always been the ones to do the things that are close to me.

Now that there is one more person, I don't know what to do? An Lingrong was also distressed. Whether it was tea, food, or clothes, I couldn't just let others take responsibility.

Otherwise, she can be placed in Yonghe Palace first. No one needs to ask her to do anything, and no one will rush to serve her. After An Lingrong finished speaking, Shen Meizhuang nodded. This was the only way for now.

After discussing this matter, both of them felt a lot more relaxed. After relaxing, Shen Meizhuang felt a little exhausted and leaned back on the soft pillow.

Asked: Today in Shoukang Palace, the Queen mentioned the issue of palace power. Why didn’t you agree? With palace power in hand, things will be easier.

My sister is right. If we had the power of the palace in our hands, we wouldn't be so timid as we are now. But our foundation is not stable after all, and our current position is nothing.

If I rush to take power in the palace, I will inevitably take a big step. My sister can see clearly that if I agree to what happened today, Concubine Hua will be secretly angry. Then I will not be timid, but will have difficulty taking every step.

Shen Meizhuang nodded. I thought too simply. Concubine Hua is very powerful, and the Queen is watching us covetously. We really can’t make enemies easily now.

That's right, my sister and I have been helping each other, so others naturally regard us as a group. Now the most important thing is to protect the baby in my sister's belly.

Let him be born safely, the palace power will be there, but we can't be impatient now. As soon as An Lingrong finished speaking, the door was pushed open.

Yan Gui came in and bowed, saying, "The two ladies have been sent back to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the eunuch didn't say anything. When the servant came back, he saw Concubine Jing coming towards the Yonghe Palace.

An Lingrong and Shen Meizhuang looked at each other and saw that it was Concubine Jing. They went to guard the door and immediately let Concubine Jing in when she arrived.

Yan Gui was stunned for a moment, then reacted and immediately retreated to the door to wait. Concubine Jing came so quickly, it must be the emperor's decree.

An Lingrong nodded after hearing this. What her sister said was right. Concubine Jing had been in the palace for many years, and it was said that she was with Concubine Hua in the palace. She must not be an ordinary person to be able to make a living under Concubine Hua.

He was promoted for no reason, and it wasn't too difficult for him to find out that we were both in Shoukang Palace, so naturally he came to ask us.

Shen Meizhuang nodded. This matter had nothing to do with them, so they should just say what they needed to say. After the two of them finished talking, they lowered their heads for a moment and heard Concubine Jing's voice.

This is the first time I have the opportunity to come into the Yonghe Palace since its opening. It looks really nice.

An Lingrong helped Shen Meizhuang to stand up and looked at Concubine Jing who walked in with a smile on her face. They both knelt down and saluted, saying, "Your servant greets Her Majesty Concubine Jing. May Her Majesty be blessed with good health."

Concubine Jing took two steps forward and helped the two of them up. Concubine Xian used to live in Xianfu Palace, although I had never seen Concubine Shu twice.

But if you are on good terms with Concubine Xian, you will also be a kind person. Seeing you two being so polite, I am ashamed. The two of them stood up casually, and Shen Meizhuang said with a smile: "When I go in and out of the palace, Concubine Jing has to take care of me."

Now I'm back in the palace. I was thinking that I would go to Xianfu Palace tomorrow to thank Concubine Jing for her kindness, but before I could go, Concubine Jing came today. "You and I are so familiar with each other, why should you be so polite?"

Concubine Jing waved her hand, looked at Shen Meizhuang's bulging belly, and said enviously: Look at your belly getting bigger, are you still feeling uncomfortable?

Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Maybe it’s because it’s been three months and I don’t feel as uncomfortable as before. Fortunately, Rong’er is always by my side to take care of me, so I can feel so relaxed.

Shen Meizhuang looked at An Lingrong with a smile on her face, and An Lingrong smiled back. Jingpin then turned her gaze to An Lingrong and said, "It's been a long time since I last saw you, Shupin.

"My glory is even greater, and I still have more charm than when I first entered the palace." Your Majesty, Concubine Jing, your praise is wonderful, and I am ashamed to accept it.

An Lingrong said something polite, and Concubine Jing spoke again, asking why Concubine Shu didn't bring the Sixth Prince with her, as she often heard the Queen mention him.

It is said that the Sixth Prince is cute and is younger than the Emperor. I am very curious. Jing Fei's words made An Lingrong pause. The other party was a smart person and would not easily say anything involving the Queen.

Did she know that she needed help from the two of them today, so she gave them conditions first? What were the conditions? Could it be that the Queen was beating the Sixth Prince to death?

Thoughts raced through her mind as An Lingrong responded with a smile, "I'd like to thank Concubine Jing for your praise on behalf of the Sixth Prince. The Sixth Prince fell asleep in the Empress Dowager's palace, so I didn't bring him out."

The Queen can come to the Yanxi Palace to have a chat someday when she is free. The Queen is very generous and the Sixth Prince will definitely like her. Concubine Jing cannot have children herself, so her love for other people's children is incomparable to others.

It can be said that in the entire harem, except for the one in Yanqing Palace, this one is the most persistent about the child. An Lingrong gave him a way out.

Jing Fei will naturally "strike the snake while the stick is still open." It's fine this way. The Japanese palace will definitely bother you. The Sixth Prince's full moon day will be in a few days. Can Shu Fei set some rules?

Today in Shoukang Palace, the Emperor did not mention this matter. I guess the Emperor has his own arrangements. I heard that the Emperor wants to give the management of the imperial kitchen to Concubine Jing.

When the time comes, it will be the Empress who will have the trouble of organizing Xiaoliu's full moon banquet. With a few words, An Lingrong handed another hook to Concubine Jing.

Concubine Jing looked at An Lingrong deeply and said, "Don't worry, sister. Xiaoliu is deeply loved by the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, so I will naturally do my best for her."

After finishing speaking, she turned her eyes and said, "Speaking of this matter, this palace has a question in my mind, and I hope that the two sisters can give me some advice. Just as Concubine Jing finished speaking, Caiyue led Hongling in from outside the palace.

Madam, the tea for Hongling is ready! Shen Meizhuang glanced at An Lingrong, pointed and said, "Leave it here, you go down first."

The two of them did as they were told. When there were only three people in the hall, An Lingrong personally poured a cup of tea and said, "Your Majesty Jingfei, I am ungrateful for your advice. I am grateful for your help to Sister Mei."

"If you have any questions, just ask directly. I will tell you everything I know." Concubine Jing reached out to take the teacup, turned it in her hand, and curled her lips.

Then I'm not polite. I wonder what happened in Shoukang Palace today? Why did the emperor suddenly assign palace affairs? An Lingrong also poured herself a cup, but did not drink it.

Then the queen responded. She should be able to guess that it was not the emperor who proposed this matter. After hearing this, Concubine Jing's eyebrows moved slightly and a look of understanding flashed.

I thought what the Queen said in Jingren Palace was just... I didn't expect that she would really say it and do it. As soon as she finished speaking, Concubine Jing looked up at An Lingrong and just met An Lingrong's eyes.

Concubine Jing looked at it for a while and suddenly laughed: "Concubine Shu is smart and knows that this is just a way to push away the hard work. But I, the palace, am not around and can only be the meat on the chopping board to be slaughtered."

An Lingrong knew the tentative intention of Concubine Jing's words. She guessed that the Queen's real intention was to let her assist in managing the harem.

However, no matter how smart Concubine Jing was, she could not figure out that the Empress Dowager suggested giving her the palace affairs because she had a crush on the Sixth Prince.

Your Majesty, you are too kind. You are now a concubine and have the power to assist in managing the harem. Even the one in Yikun Palace cannot surpass you. Why should you be so sad?

Having said that, An Lingrong blew on the hot tea in her hand and said, "The fact that Her Majesty was given the title of Concubine today was not due to the efforts of me and Sister Mei."

It was the Queen Mother who spoke up herself, which showed that the Queen Mother was also in the Queen Mother's sight. "The Queen Mother?" Concubine Jing whispered, seeming to be unconvinced.

In her heart, the Queen Mother has always been on the same side as the Queen. How could she possibly refute the Queen and speak for herself in front of the Emperor?

But when she thought about it again, thinking about the Queen Mother's special treatment for the Sixth Prince, she figured out what the Queen Mother really meant. She was using herself as a pawn to excuse Concubine Shu and get Concubine Hua to turn her attention to herself and not stare at the Yanxi Palace.

Thinking of this, Concubine Jing suddenly felt a little powerless. The position of a concubine seemed noble, and the power to assist in managing the harem seemed glorious.

But how could an outsider understand the bitterness? A bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, thinking if he had a child himself.

Wouldn't it be used casually to save people's popularity? However, this bitter policy was hidden very well when Concubine Jing raised her head.

She then resumed her calm demeanor and said, "Sister Shupin is so lucky to have a good son. I am so envious of him." Thank you two sisters for answering my questions.

Your Majesty has been in the palace for many years, and has been promoted from the Prince's Mansion to the position of the Commander. I envy your Majesty's thoroughness. Concubine Shu is too polite. Everyone in the harem lives by looking at others' faces. How can you say "standing"!

Concubine Jing's words sounded very depressing. An Lingrong couldn't find any words to comfort her for a moment, so she just smiled and didn't reply. Shen Meizhuang really couldn't stand this depressing atmosphere.

He glanced at An Lingrong and said with a smile, "Empress Jing was promoted today, which is a great joyous event. Why do Empress Jing and Rong'er seem unhappy?"

Concubine Jing then came to her senses, smiled and said, "Concubine Xian is right, I was wrong."
